Alter # 1 (with John Bushnell)

Alter # 1 is the first of a series of 10 “We prey to Many Gods.” It is a small attempt to quiet my restless mind into seeing the mulitude views of the ALL we are a part of. It stores in itself: the top part lifts off and fits into the bottom for storage when not on display…The figures are triggers to memories and associations beyond our conscious mind… tricking me into expanding what i think i know into something bigger.
